Fengling and Tongguan, two ancient ferries that have stood for thousands of years, face each other across the Yellow River?
There is a Fenglingdui here, which is said to be the tomb of Fenghou, a figure from the Huangdi era. It is also the place where Huang Di Xian Xiang Feng invented the compass and defeated Chi You. After Fenghou died, Huangdi buried him at the place where he had fought, which was called Fengling.
There are endless stories there... The Heartless Valley, the Heartless Lovers, and the Heartless Feng Ling are the most distressing!
After the club head was set, the sun gradually shone slantingly... Apparently it was already past noon?
I saw, under the bright sun, an old man and a young man, a man and a woman, one behind the other, walking on this ancient road... Before sunset, the small town in front of them was the place where the two planned to rest tonight.
A-Ling is the daughter of the owner of a hotel called Xu Ji Inn in Fengling Ancient Town on the edge of the Yellow River. Xu Hongling is her real name, and Ling'er is her nickname.
The girl is twenty-eight years old... At sixteen years old, she is dressed in red silk and is as beautiful as a flower. She is the innkeeper and the apple of Tailor Xu's eye. She has grown up here since childhood...
The owner of the inn is called "Tailor Xu". Yes, you heard it right. He used to be a tailor. Later, he was forced to make a living and became a cook. Later, he simply settled down here by the Yellow River. In the ancient town, he opened this inn.
The red damask Rosa plain dress worn by A Ling was made by Tailor Xu. At the same time, he is also proficient in various cooking skills... As the saying goes, "Like father, like daughter?"
A-Ling... has been ingenious since she was a child, so she has perfectly inherited her father's various skills... For all the clothes she cuts and sews, people nearby will come to buy them. The scene is so hot that the supply exceeds the supply.
At the same time, she can also cook various delicacies, among which "Yellow River Carp" is A Ling's specialty, famous far and wide.
"Ling'er, do you think the sun is going to set? There aren't many guests today, so let's close up early... My father has made you another set of red damask rose skirts. Please take the time to go back to your room and put it on. Come out and let me take a look and see if there are any areas that need improvement..."
Tailor Xu stood at the counter, turned to look at the figure who was still busy in the kitchen, and said calmly.
"Yeah, I got it, dad... there is another carp coming out of the pot soon. Aunt Zhang next door is hosting a full-moon banquet for her grandson? All the guests from her place will eat our "Yellow River Carp" by name. Just bring it to her..."
As soon as the silver bell-like words landed, I saw a girl in red, with a kitchen towel on her head and a floral apron. She held the fragrant and attractive sweet and sour "Yellow River Big Carp" on the plate with one hand. ".
Inadvertently, she turned around gently and beautifully. During the rotation, an invisible aura suddenly rose up, and the kitchen curtain that had been hanging for a long time was swung open... making her entire body look like she was in the water. Like a hibiscus, it slipped out quietly.
"Dad, don't panic, Ling'er, just go and come back..." After that, he disappeared in a flash.
When she came back from Aunt Zhang's house next door, Tailor Xu had already started lighting the lamp and cleaning...
Seeing this, A-Ling ran over quickly, grabbed Tailor Xu's broom, and said with an angry look on her face: "Dad, your back injury has not fully recovered yet, and you are still coughing up blood this morning. I have already told you, you After taking the medicine, just sit there and don't move. But you just don't listen. Remember, just leave these trivial things to me in the future... If you don't listen to Ling'er again, then I will do it again. Ignore you too?"
After saying that, she pouted, turned around, and then, with another kick, she lifted all the long wooden benches in the inn onto the table in an instant.
After doing all this, she stretched out her palm, pointed at the broom in the corner, and said: "Come"... Then the broom rose up in response and fell steadily into her hand. "
"Haha, use this as a sword...why not?"
A Ling held the broom and danced, followed by a dazzling operation?
I remember that Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once described the sword dance: "In the past, there was a beautiful woman named Gongsun. When she danced, her sword moved in all directions. The viewers were as depressed as the mountains, and the heaven and earth were depressed for a long time. Huo Ruyi shot the nine sunsets, correcting It is like a group of emperors flying dragons. It comes like thunder to suppress its wrath, and it ends like a river and sea condensing clear light." It is said that the wild cursive script of Zhang Xu, the grass saint, was inspired by her sword dance.
Ah Ling is such a pretty little cook, and she dances the graceful sword very well. Compared with the Gongsun described by the poet sage Du Fu above, he is "even better than him".
I saw the broom in her hand, sometimes like a dragonfly touching water, sometimes like everything renewing, sometimes swallowing mountains and rivers as fiercely as a tiger, sometimes peach blossoms in March shame people's faces.
The girl dancing the sword, at this time, was dressed proudly in red, with long hair like ink, and a faint elegance between her eyebrows. Obviously, her swordsmanship has become superb, flowing naturally like clouds and flowing water.
As the sword power gradually retreated, in an instant, the entire inn was cleaned by her, and even the door panels were swept back to their places by the sword energy emanating from her broom.
"Ling'er, it seems that your cultivation has improved a lot?" Tailor Xu still said calmly, but there was a look of relief in his eyes.
"Well, more than ten years have passed, and I don't know if they are okay?" This slightly haggard man murmured to himself from time to time.
He seemed to have too many things on his mind... which was why the gleam of joy in his eyes suddenly disappeared due to an inexplicable anxiety in his heart.
At this moment, he looked a little sad...
No one in this town knows what he went through? No one knew the origins of their father and daughter at all... Everyone only knew that that year the Yellow River changed its course. After the flood subsided, he carried the infant girl on his back, and the two of them appeared in this place at the same time. Fengling Town next to the Millennium Fengling Ferry.
In the days that followed, that man first became a tailor, then a cook, and then an innkeeper... As for whether he was a so-called "master of cultivating immortals", after all, no one had ever seen the father and daughter actually take action?
It was only in the dead of night that they would occasionally hear the melancholy playing of the piano in the inn, and the beautiful figure swaying through the screen window at the red candle under the moon.
Tonight, the crescent moon is rising...the willow trees are like the wind.
This small town next to the ancient ferry, with its quiet bluestone streets, also looks particularly empty? The figure that suddenly appeared was walking in the moonlight, looking for the sound of the piano, and quietly walked to the door of the inn.
Inside the door, red candles shed tears, and the music of the piano melodious... In the dream, the song "Yang of Burial Flowers" could only be heard, and the people outside the door shed tears.
At this time, A-Ling was wearing a red damask and a plain Rosa skirt. She was like a fairy from Chang'e, dancing in the wind amid the swaying red candles, like snow and a dream... The man playing the piano was the "Medicine Jar" man. Tailor Xu.
And the tune he caressed was exactly what the world would remember a few years later, the heart-breaking song that was just like "The Burial of the Flowers" in The Remaining Dream of the Red Mansions.
Who is he? Why does it appear here? What has he experienced? What is the relationship between that little girl and him? And the person outside the door who just shed tears, who could it be?
"Pa bang bang..."
As three knocks on the door rang, a middle-aged woman's anxious voice seemed to come from outside the door?
"Staff, could you please open the door? I have a guest coming from afar. It's getting late and I need to stay overnight. Could you please make it a convenience?"
The woman outside the door yelled at the crack in the door with a loud voice.
"Godmother, I heard some noise inside just now. It can't be empty. How can a businessman close so early? Please step out of the way and let me knock. I don't believe it anymore. Why? You really can’t open the door?”
A slightly younger man's voice spoke persistently.
"Ling'er, there is someone outside the door. Could it be that she is here..."
Tailor Xu in the room looked at the door, pressed the strings with both hands, and then stopped playing.
The beautiful sound of the piano, the moment it suddenly stopped?
The dancing girl A Ling suddenly spun around, turned around and slid sideways... and in an instant she tied up her red silk that was flying away behind her.
Tucked together, there is also the skirt that has been unfolded just like a lotus flower.
I saw her, first she straightened her posture, glanced at her father in the distance, and then looked at the door curiously...
After a while?
With a "squeak", the door panel was opened again. Through the clear moonlight, she saw him...she also saw him...The moment the four of them looked at each other, everyone was stunned?
First came the wasp. The girl A Ling who opened the door looked like a fairy in the moon and was stunned into silence?
For a moment, I was stunned there, not knowing what to do...
He only felt a heat on his face, and in an instant, two fire clouds rose up. After a burst of heartbeat, his face suddenly turned red.
Look at that girl A Ling again?
It seemed that I was also instantly fascinated by Wasp's look that looked like a handsome young man, but also walked in the dust?
So, she hesitated to speak, then lowered her head shyly... Naturally, she looked at a loss what to do?
